Thinking about something to remain on the coach. How much trouble is this marriage going to be?

I just finished setting up my Jeep Unlimited (2016) to be our TOAD. I used Blue Ox's Base Plate and Tow Bars, I used Road Masters Invisibrake System and Hopkins trailer harness to tap into my lights on the Jeep so I didn't have to cut/splice any factory wires.
I also tapped into the brake controller wire on the RV side to use as my brake signal light for the warning light/buzzer.
All of this was done w/ lots of patience and paying attention. If you are half handy and know how to run multi-meter, you'll be fine. It will take you 3X the amount of time it takes to have it professionally done, but I liked the tinkering and enjoyed the project. Thank goodness for Forums and YouTube!
If you have any questions, PM me, I would be glad to help you out and even send photos of my setup.
